What are we ranking? Athleticism? How dominate they were in their sport vs the others? Penis size?

 

[Nosferatu]

I love Ali but he was as much about his persona as he was a great boxer, Sugar Ray Robinson has to be in this discussion, he never got knocked out and fought until he was in his mid 40's. Rocky Marciano & Joe Louis are in the convo with Ali as well IMO...

You decide on GOAT. Penis size shouldn't matter because some might come up short in the debate

Usain Bolt > Carl Lewis

There they go. There they go. Every time I talk about boxing, a white man pulls Rocky Marciano out his ass. That's their one, that's their one. "Rocky Marciano, Rocky Marciano!" Let me tell you something. Rocky Marciano was good, but compared to Joe Louis, Rocky Marciano ain't shit!

I ranked our banner, after that I love all 4 boxers I named, Jack Nicklaus is up there for me as well. Ummm, Usain Bolt, Phelps, Steffi Graf, Bobby Orr, Gehrig, LT

He whipped Joe Louis ass.

 

[Nosferatu]

He whipped Joe Louis ass.

Louis was 37 Marciano was 28

 

[femurov]

1. Wayne Gretzky
2. Babe Ruth
3. Michael Jordan
4. Joe Montana

These are ranked on how dominating they were in their respective sports. I feel like the #2 rated hockey player of all time is farther away from the #2 rated basketball player, then on down. After that, as far as 5 - 8 goes...

5. Jerry Rice
6. Wilt Chamberlain
7. Willie Mays
8. Mario Lemiuex

 

[femurov]

Louis was 37 Marciano was 28

Actually, Louis was 75, according to Eddie.

4) Montana

5) Rice
6) Phelps
7) Ali
8) Nicklaus


Question for you guys...where do you rank Barry Bonds. Obviously me being a blind homer here, but I've never seen someone change an entire game, in and individualistic sport like baseball, like he did. It was amazing. Even with the whole steroids issue, he's got to be considered up there. I know Mays gets the nod over him over most purists, and I didn't get to see Mays in his days either.
